You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world,
obeying the devil—the commander of the powers
in the unseen world.
He is the spirit at work
in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God.
Ephesians 2:2 (NLT)
Esteemed members of Occupy Hades,
I want to share with you a series of very disturbing messages that I just received from one of our operatives in the field. This is the first one:
"It appears that the folks at [a popular social media platform] are screening posts containing Biblical scriptures in an attempt to censor the word of God. A now-deleted post containing Proverbs 8:13 (NIV) was flagged. It is the first time any post has received such scrutiny. Maybe it was a mistake. We shall see."
What follows are details that pertain the subsequent investigation of events...
"Proverbs 8:13 (NIV) was just reposted. It was also flagged with the warning: "Visibility limited: this Post may violate [the platform’s] rules against Hateful Conduct." The scripture says: "To fear the LORD is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech."
The post contains a news article that was accompanied by Proverbs 8:13 (NIV) when it was flagged...twice. This platform is censoring the use of the word of God, a.k.a. 'the Sword of the Spirit' which is a component of the Armor of God in Ephesians 6:17 (NLT) which states:
"Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God."
At this point I must reiterate that I never post anything unless prompted by the Holy Spirit in accordance with 1 Corinthians 6:19 (NIV) which states: "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own."
I am aware that individuals who aspire to master the use of the Armor of God must avoid all evil behavior. Furthermore, whoever seeks to master the Sword of the Spirit (a.k.a. the Word of God) cannot rely on the use of obscene or perverse speech. Hence, I never use obscenities in order to make a point.
I will again attempt to use the Word of God, in combination with a number of news items, for the purpose of testing the level of censorship on this platform in relationship to the Sword of the Spirit and its affect on scriptures that are used as extensions of the Armor of God. Your guidance would be greatly appreciated."
Upon receipt of this message, I immediately made arrangements to move all day-to-day operations to our headquarters at Guantanamo-on-the-Styx. Whoever is targeting the Sword of the Spirit is attempting to neutralize our ability to wage war on the demonic forces of the Unseen World that currently roam
the Mundane Plain. Those forces, called 'the Army of Iniquity', are led by Belial the Worthless. However, Belial is incarcerated at
the Lake of Fire, somewhere deep in the bowels of the Abyss. They will never find him.
The vast majority of the Army of Iniquity is Belial's children and compatriots, who are every bit as worthless as he is. They are currently searching high and low for him, while at the same time refusing to acknowledge that their leader is missing. Today's message is a sign that Belial's brood is getting desperate enough to come after our operatives. Soon they will attempt to breach our defenses and attack us at
the Bottomless Pit. It is a strategy that is as futile as it is stupid, and it is the result of feckless and reckless leadership, but that is a story for another time.
What matters is that Guantanamo-on-the-Styx is now on a war footing. All angels in training (A.I.T.) are now on active duty status and are expected to check in ASAP so they may receive their new assignments. Members of
the M-6 (the Butterfly Cluster) will report to
Queen Psyche, the de-facto Butterfly Queen, until further notice.
Queen Oya is her second in command. Members of
the M-7 (the Open Star Cluster) are expected to report
Queen Shaula of Scorpius.
Queen Rosette, the Celestial Queen of Skulls, is her second in command.
As of now, Queen Psyche, Queen Oya, Queen Shaula and Queen Rosette are hereby elevated to the high command as members of the attack squad known as '
the Faceless MPs', also known as 'the Faceless Martian-Plutonian Syndicate'. Other members include
King Pluto,
King Ares,
Queen Styx,
Queen Nyx and
King Antares, the rival of Mars. The complete roster will be announced in the very near future. Have a blessed day.
Sincerely,
Apollyon the Destroyer
